Thoughts on Money
Being "good with money" means you know how to USE it. Saving money is one use, but it's not the exclusive way to put your money to work for you .
Being "a good saver" DOESN'T make you good with money
after writing about money for a decade, what have I figured out about money, you ask? financial security isn't a number, it’s a relationship with "enough."
no number will ever feel like enough when your sense of security is tied to one. you hit the milestone, the goalpost moves, you blame yourself for moving it.

Owning your right to feel good about money can help you make it happen. This isn’t law of attraction, raising your vibrations or whatever. It doesn’t actually get you more money by any means. It’s about getting creative to use the system against itself and claim the good money vibes you have every right to experience.
Money is mostly vibes
Small Planet Institute co-founder Anna Lappé once said:
“Every time you spend money, you’re casting a vote for the kind of world you want.”
The beautiful budget
The world is split between those who don't know how to start making money and those who don't know when to stop.
